So, who wants to bake this for me? [link] Bocconcini-stuffed Mediterranean bacon pull-aparts. I mean, seriously.
If I made that, I'd skip the olives. But, otherwise, it sounds like a foodgasm.
I didn't create the troll. I didn't date the troll. In fact I hate the troll. I helped deflate the troll-- All done.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
And the beauty of the concept is, you could totally take things out or add other things, and it would still be ridiculously delicious! Mmmm.
OK, so now I'm watching the Daily Show, and he's talking about those missionaries who got in trouble for trying to take kids out of Haiti. A couple of things: First, I cringe every time I hear them described as "American Baptists," because they are Baptists from the US, not members of the American Baptist Convention. So that makes me cringe. And then, what they're doing makes me cringe, of course, EXCEPT that when my cousin's fiance was down there (sleeping in a car for a week), friends and relatives kept asking him to take their kids with him when he left. But of course, they were not trying to put their kids up for adoption, they were trying to make sure their kids had a place to sleep and food to eat. But it does make me slightly more sympathetic to the -- don't get me wrong, completely misguided, ignorant, and wrong -- missionaries.
Anyway. That's on my mind.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I finally got around to trying the Peanut Satay insta-noodles from Trader Joe's and they do not suck, as most insta-food does.

I'm starting all the paperwork and phone calls on my poor injured car (slept very late today after yesterday's stress marathon), and it's bringing back all the shakiness! Go away, shakiness, I need to be adult and business-like now!
Anyone have advice on things I should/shouldn't do in terms of dealing with my insurance company, repair place, rental place, etc?
